The low-level structure of calcium isotopes is generally characterized by the valence neutrons in the fp shell and a 40Ca core. The gradual filling of the f7/2 shell with neutrons for 42,44,46Ca, between doubly-magic 40Ca and 48Ca, causes strong variations in the excitation energies and B(E2)’s of their 21+ states. If fp shell neutrons are the dominant components in the nuclear wave functions one expects for these states negative g factor values (g≃ −0.4). From recent g factor measurements, employing projectile Coulomb excitation and the transient field technique, however, very surprising results were obtained. For 42,44Ca(21+) positive values of g factors were observed which could only be explained by shell model calculations including substantial cross-shell configurations from 40Ca core excitation [1]. In contrast, a recent first measurement on 46Ca(21+), using an enriched 46Ca beam, however, yielded a negative g factor, in complete disagreement with the positive value prediction. Evidently, in this case the valence neutrons of the fp shell play the dominant role.
